First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

Allyson Felix
Many people recognize that technology often comes with unintended and undesirable side effects.

Lafcadio Hearn
It's amazing how ideas start out, isn't it?
Nigel Farage
Humor has historically been tied to the mores of the day. The Yellow Kid was predicated on what people thought was funny about the immigrant Irish. When you're different in a society, you're funny.
Will Eisner
I've an enormous respect for my mother who at the age of 39 raised three children, and I grew up with my grandmother in the household. And so it was a really strong household of women - my poor brother! It was great growing up with so many generations of women.
Cate Blanchett
A politician will do anything to keep his job - even become a patriot.
William Randolph
All of my friends are animal people. To me, cats are people, too. Animals are people, too. I travel a lot and when I go overseas, it's really hard on me because the animals are treated much differently, especially in developing countries.
AnnaLynne McCord
Truth titillates the imagination far less than fiction.
Marquis de Sade
I don't know if high society is different in other cities, but in Hollywood, important people can't stand to be invited someplace that isn't full of other important people. They don't mind a few unfamous people being present because they make good listeners.
Marilyn Monroe
The history of Wall Street is inseparable from New York.

Graham Norton
In life, you need a house and a car. After that, you have a choice.

Stevie Wonder is just one of those guys that completely delivers everything that you want to be true about Stevie Wonder. He's an amazing human being, and the fairytale exists with that man.
Adam Levine
I never saw my dad cry. My son saw me cry. My dad never told me he loved me, and consequently I told Scott I loved him every other minute. The point is, I'll make less mistakes than my dad, my sons hopefully will make less mistakes than me, and their sons will make less mistakes than their dads.
James Caan
